Sorry about all the irrelevants, I'd just rather say that than make up an arbitrary and possibly misleading answer.

I will say that the reason that so many answers are irrelevant has to do with the fact that this is a very lateral, and not extremely literal puzzle

Oh. So would this actually happen in real life? Is there a pun involved? Noish to water...did he drink one of those oxygenated water drinks? Is this drink a common one? The something relevant that happened during the golf game: did it happen to him? to one of the other players? to the surroundings? to his car? Did he pack up properly before heading to his car? After buying his mystery drink, he drives around for a while, lost, correct? Does he head back to the gas station at any point? Does he find himself back at the golf course?

So on his way from the gas station home, did he go anywhere relevant? Or just kept driving round and round? He did get home eventually, correct? I have no idea what drink this is...is it a specific brand?

If you pinpoint the type of drink and can't come up with the brand I will tell you the brand. Same name everywhere or different in different langages?not sure

Is the playing with words then in the lines of "(golf) driving from tee", "stopping at Gulf for tea" etc?no...but you've touched on an important element here. Explore

Well the type of drink that you are describing here goes by several names that I can think of: slushee? slurpee? misty? frostee? something else?I'll go ahead annd say...it's an ICEE. It was only a matter of time before someone threw that name out there anyway.

And the "tee" reference, does it relate to any of the following with regards to the puzzle: tee shirt? notee-tee? noiced tea (tee)?nothe fact that the word "tee" and the letter combination "ty" can rhyme?no

Icee... "I see"? no...ishIs the word "stick" involved? noHmm...Maybe if we take a "tee off" the stick...he gets "sick"? Haha ah, but you're very much on the right track. The "tee off" part is correct, but not off the word stick.Is it relevant that his name is Stu?YES

In golf you tee off, so t off Stu becomes Su. correct? yes!Add a drink an Icee or I C and Su becomes Suic or Sicu correct? yes!Now now to find how a U becomes a K, ....U turn maybee? Indeed, a U turn...but how is the K involved?
